Gary,

You are right on. Politics seems to be  what drives the DOE. I listened
to an interview on PBS the other night with the woman who now is the
head of the DOE and got the distinct impression that she has to bow to
politicians not educators.

Perhaps this is why the private school sector is so strong here in the
islands.
